Motivated by the importance of study on the complex behaviors, which may be exhibited by fractional order differential equations, this review paper focuses on dynamical fractional order systems exhibiting chaotic behaviors. The review begins with a brief history on the first publications on the above-mentioned subject. Then, the review is continued by investigating the recent progresses relevant to fractional order chaotic systems. Furthermore, a summary on some applications for such systems, which have been reported in the literature, is presented. Finally, the paper is closed by discussing some open problems on the aforementioned research subject. These open problems, as future challenges for further study on fractional order chaotic systems, can specify some direction lines for continuing the research on that subject.
